”It is very gratifying to have now secured the capital that Lipidor needs to carry out the Phase III study. We have had strong support from our main shareholders and would like to take the opportunity to thank all existing and new shareholders who supported us. Lipidor is now facing the most pivotal year in our company's history and we look forward to keeping you updated on our progress towards study results,” says Ola Holmlund, CEO Lipidor.

“LSIF is happy to have become a major shareholder in Lipidor. With the company having identified and addressed the issue in the failed Phase III trial, Lipidor and the psoriasis patients deserves a new trial, and we believe the chances of success in this new trial to be very promising,” says Jan Poulsen, CEO Life Science Invest Fund.
